Post Match Discussion - Never in doubt

Sure hope so, minus the Eagles bit (can't stand that team)

Me too, I really hate the Weagles. My 8 year old grandson barracks for the Dockers (like his dad) but tells me time and time again that Melbourne is his favourite VICTORIAN team. He too is not an Eagles fan.

I get to! Yay for night shift.

Doubt there'll be much happening around here by about 3am though :P

I'm staying up to watch the 3.30am replay on Fox Footy. Can't wait.

haha so am I. This win is crazy, I can't stop randomly shaking my head and fist pumping. I knew there was a reason I supported through all those hard times, cause winning is an amazing feeling.

My son's in the same boat... he's just truned 12 and hasn't seen a lot of success. It was certainly a lift for him though after his team, the Newtown Swans, were suffered a 38 point loss to the ladder leaders earlier in the day.

Mine's similar: 14. Luckily for me/him, we live overseas, and has only seen about 3 matches his whole life. Luckily for him/us, we've somehow managed to win all of them, which has somewhat skewed his perception of the team - a perception I haven't been in a hurry to correct. Go Dees.

McKenzie's run on the wing was brilliant but for me the highlight was Pedersen's duck which set the whole play up.

Seems ironic that Pederson won the game for a duck considering his first game last year!

Not to be confused with Michael Hurley.

Geez he is a bloody average footballer

As I recall he was a top 5 pick, taken couple of spots after Jack Watts in the same draft, and not long ago he signed a 5 year 500k per season deal

Deserves a lot of media scrutiny, they love to talk trash on Watts lack of physicality well Hurley has 12 kg;'s on him and never does anything physical and never imposes himself on a contest

Don't watch the show, what did he say about Bernie?

That he (Bernie) is comfortable with being a B grader when he could become an A grader.

I found it a dumb comment. If it were that easy everyone would be an A grader.

Putting Kent's running goal in my top 3 in between the wiz at Waverley and TJ at subiaco.

My favourite was Woewodens running goal from the back pocket. Can't remember the year or opposition but it was an all time great..

Also saw Wells do similar against Geelong way back when.

"Of all teams, OF ALL FKN TEAMS we embarass ourselves against this 2 bob, pissant club AGAIN.

See 2011, see 2012 FKN GROUNDHOG DAY against this shite. Absolute fkn livid.

Hurley should have gone forward in the last quarter IMO, too stubborn bombre"

Just lifted this off Bomberblitz (good reading). Gracious aren't they? BTW who is bombre? Dumb ..ucks!!

I just coughed my toast up in laughter when reading that.

Gold.

    DERAILMENT by KC from Casey

    It wasn’t quite a trainwreck although at times, it sure looked like one, so I’ll settle for “derailment”.  The trip to Brighton Homes Arena in Springfield outside the back of Brisbane might not exactly be the same place where Homer Simpson’s family resides but, if you listened closely to the utterances of the Casey Demons fans both at the ground or watching via livestream, you could hear lots of groaning and plenty of expressions of “D'oh!” reverberating in the background, particular

    TEN YEARS AFTER by Whispering Jack

    Things have changed in the more than ten years since the West Coast Eagles decimated Melbourne by 93 points on the MCG early in the 2014 season. The two sides had not met at the home of football in the interim until yesterday when Melbourne won by a comfortable 54 points to remain in contention for this year’s finals series. Back in those days, the Demons were in the midst of their Great Depression but they have since tasted premiership glory and experienced a long enough period among

    PREGAME: Rd 18 vs Essendon

    POSTGAME: Rd 17 vs West Coast

    The Demons are back in the hunt for finals after a clinical victory over the West Coast Eagles at the MCG which was sealed after bursting out of the blocks with a seven goal to one first quarter.

    GAMEDAY: Rd 17 vs West Coast

    It’s game day and the Demons return to Melbourne to play the Eagles at the MCG for the first time in over a decade. A win keeps the Dees finals hopes alive whereas a loss will almost certainly slam the finals window shut.

    CROSSROADS by The Oracle

    Melbourne stands at the crossroads.  Sunday’s game against the West Coast Eagles who have not met the Demons at the MCG in more than ten years, is a make or break for the club’s finals aspirations.  That proposition is self-evident since every other team the club will be opposed to over the next eight weeks of footy is a prospective 2024 finalist. To add to this perspective is the fact that while the Demons are now in twelfth position on the AFL table, they are only a game and a half b

    DELUGE by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons overcame their inaccuracy and the wet inhospitable conditions to overrun the lowly Northern Bullants at Genis Steel Oval in Cramer Street, Preston on Saturday. It was an eerie feeling entering the ground that in the past hosted many VFA/VFL greats of the past including the legendary Roy Cazaly. The cold and drizzly rain and the sparse crowd were enough to make one want to escape to the nearby Preston Market and hang out there for the afternoon. In the event, the fans

    INSANITY by Whispering Jack

    Somehow, the Melbourne Football Club managed it twice in the course of a week. Coach Simon Goodwin admitted it in his press conference after the loss against the Brisbane Lions in a game where his team held a four goal lead in the third term:   "In reality we went a bit safe. Big occasion, a lot of young players playing. We probably just went into our shell a bit. "There's a bit to unpack in that last quarter … whether we go into our shells a bit late in the game."   Well
